Dear All, Wishing you a very Happy New Year! I hope I’ll be forgiven for being so late with my message, and news, due to the distraction of completing the purchase of my boutique. Last Tuesday, you may have heard the whoops of joy, and relief across South West London! There are many people to thank […]

Dear All, This issue is highly dominated by weddings – beautiful weddings, of course, and dresses perfectly suited to a Princess! Congratulations to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle! News of their engagement is happy and uplifting and will keep us in anticipation about who’s doing what, and inspired with everything related to weddings through to […]

Dear All, Since sending my last newsletter (which admittedly, followed a long gap) I’ve received messages, and visits from clients, which made me realise how poorly I’ve communicated my whereabouts. Several gave up after pounding up and down the New Kings Road, expecting to pop into my showroom, and in general I hadn’t appreciated the […]

Dear All, I’d been highly recommended to see the wonderful exhibition of clothing and accessories: HOUSE STYLE – Five Centuries of Fashion at Chatsworth I’m so pleased I made the trip to my favourite House in Derbyshire and experienced the most eclectic collection of clothes, arranged through the rooms in the settings they would have […]

Dear All, The summer has slipped by, and I know that it’s been far too long a wait for the exciting news about my new shop!

In addition to being busy with new designs for lots of special occasions this summer, I’m very flattered to have […]

In February we embrace love, and romance – at least in fashion! With the lengthening days, it feels as though Spring is fast approaching, and with it a riot of pretty, feminine lipstick colours that are a joy to see. For weddings, the light airy boho and vintage looks are still strong, but I’m adding […]

Happy New Year! It’s been a speedy start to 2017, and I can’t quite believe we’re more than half way through January already! I’m really excited because my new clothes rails arrived last week, so the new showroom is coming to life, and presenting my designs in the way they should be seen. I’m looking […]

It’s hurtling towards the end of 2016, and I feel my feet have barely touched the ground this year! There are so many exciting projects to look forward to, and I feel totally unprepared for Christmas. The first is my very long overdue new website… Pete and I discussed the plan and design four years […]
